Angelouscuitry I caught your post and hence my suggestion and rant to an open source figure. I need a low poly male figure though. I have had bad luck with trying to use programs to lower the poly count. Still even with a good figure, I need too add a skeleton and animation and need to know if that is usable.
DustRider, I have checked out MakeHuman, thats why I referenced it. The most current web page is the source forge page as the admin has changed. To be honest the Make Human figures currently have too many polys. If the project isnt abandoned, it will probably come in a much later release.
Lucipher, I agree with you but that does not mean we are correct. Nothing would make me happier then hearing, go ahead use any figure and re skin him as you wish just as long as you dont distribute the mesh in a usable form. But if you have the mesh in a game (encrypted or not) you still are distrubuting it. As you see by some posters, they interprete the EULA as saying thats not possible.
In the end, I will just email eF as they now own the rights to the program.
